Abstract:

The Streetscape provide a conceptual framework for guiding sustainable urban space improvements. Building forms form refers to architecture that is the height of buildings, the articulation of their form, and the quality of their materials and construction. Building form is also primarily concerned with the character, shape, scale, and design of buildings. While the study provides a holistic view of the streets of Halifax city, it includes the evaluation of the articulation created by the coming together of the buildings and the physical and perceptual components affecting the public interfaces examined on the examples. For this purpose, the study is examined under two headings as the streetscape and building articulation. As part of the holistic evaluation of the buildings in the study, the use of materials, entrances, roof ends of the buildings, signs and wall-paintings on the buildings, awnings and canopies on the facades of the buildings is examined. As part of the holistic evaluation of the streets, design of building-street interface, building orientation and settlement, type of building uses, pedestrian walkways are examined. At the end of the study showed that design principles and harmony with each other of the buildings that determine the street boundaries guides the shaping of the city.
